Been working on this 69 HO for a while now and finally ready to get it on the road.
I have redone the engine, trans, new wiring, fixed a lot of the small tinker things but still have a quite a bit of that to do yet.
I'm not going for show car but trying to keep it as close to stock as possible which is pretty difficult considering every HO that is out there is a little different and so are all the proclaimed unmolested cars, no 2 alike.
Its a 90 percenter I guess. 90 percent as close as I can tell it should be, lol.
The motor has been converted to roller rockers w/adjustable lifters. All port matched and polished from intake to exhaust manifolds. Its punched out 60 over. It has a good lope to it but should still be driveable with the power brakes I hope.
